Cybersecurity, Emergency Incident, Contacting Security

How to contact the Cybersecurity Operations Center on-call responder in an emergency.

Cybersecurity breach or other cybersecurity emergency? 

IF YOU DISCOVER A PROBABLE BREACH  

STOP!

  • Do not power anything off.
  • Do not remove anything from the network yet if at all possible.
  • Do not mess with any of the affected things if at all possible.
  • Before you do anything, Security needs to work towards understanding, containing, mitigating, and ultimately recovering the incident. Messing with the system can complicate or disrupt campus’ ability to do those things, so please take two steps back and breathe.
REPORT IT IMMEDIATELY
